Baylor at ASU Saturday: Tempe Night Test for Hot Bear Defense

-


Sic ’em — Tempe under the lights is the next Big 12 measuring stick.

Baylor (3-1, 1-0 Big 12) visits Arizona State (2-1) Saturday, Oct. 3 at 9:30 p.m. CT on ESPN at Mountain America Stadium — the Bears’ first trip there since 1990. Baylor’s defense has held four straight opponents under 20 points and sits tied near the national lead with 15 sacks. Keys still center on pressuring junior QB Cutter Boley and getting the run game going again after a quiet carry count in the Colorado win.

ASU leads the all-time series 2-0, including last year’s 27-24 walk-off in Waco. Local coverage in the Valley is already framing it as a night the Sun Devils need a cleaner offensive outing at home under Kenny Dillingham.

For Baylor Football (https://rfsportsradio.blogspot.com/search/label/Baylor%20Football), the radio question: does the sack party ruin Boley’s night, or does desert air dry up the Bears’ conference start?

I think they bring out buried feelings of joy and happiness in people that don’t often get to see the light of day anymore. Folks are happier, kids are giddier, and teens are pressing their folks for gifts, even on Mother’s and Father’s Day. But my favorite holiday of them all is Halloween. And it has absolutely nothing to do with costumes and or candy but rather the date on the calendar it represents. October 31st signifies the start of the basketball regular season! Either your team has one game under it's belt, or is preparing for game one or is glorifying a local television broadcast with fun Halloween graphics heading into and out of commercials. The 2013-2014 NBA season kicks off two days in advance of trick-or-treating with national broadcasts coming on October 29th put October in the rearview and gear up for the season ahead.

Lamar Odom: Flesh and Blood

by Matt Silverston Say what you want about Lamar Odom, and go ahead and criticize his lifestyle and the choices he's made, but I will never hesitate to stand up for those human beings who suffer from addiction and mental illness. Given that Odom's story as well as his whereabouts are uncertain and up-in-the-air at this time, the biggest issue at stake here is so much more than money, a reality TV drama, or a basketball hoop. His future livelihood as a healthy, spirited human being is under attack and in immediate jeopardy.
